Alchemie have developed a mercury free, two component thermoset system which is water clear when cured.

The range consists of 4 different products CC1000, CC2000, CC3000 and CC4000, which vary primarily by pot life, resulting in a glass clear finish, for small and large casting applications. 

The material is optically clear and UV stable. 

KRAKEN Project presented first results at the International Conference on Additive Manufacturing

Hannover, 21 September 2017 – During EMO Hannover 2017, KRAKEN supported the “International Conference on Additive Manufacturing” and presented the latest developments within the project on hybrid material additive manufacturing and the CAM system.

A recent project for a leading model making company required a model board which would enable them to create a high quality and eye catching ceramic tableware range.

The company specialise in traditional model making, and favour the freedom to use a wider range of materials than those offered by 3D printing and additive technologies.

Alchemie supplied them with M1007, a board and block material with good heat resistance and low coefficient of thermal expansion.  https://www.alchemie.com/m-1007.html

Alchemie are expanding their epoxy and polyurethane resin range, and are pleased to announce the following 2 products; EP5243 and PU3710...

The KRAKEN project, co-funded under the H2020 programme, is going to integrate various key technologies, such as 3D printing, robotics, 7DoF real time control, complex monitoring and advanced control algorithms, supported by an innovative CAM software, in one machine.

An art studio that design and manufacture statues worldwide, has recently been making use of Alchemie’s polyurethane products.

Previously, the manufacturing process used to take between 6-8 weeks, but by using our fast cast, unfilled resin, combined with a rotomoulding process, the statues can be completed in less than half the time, 2-3 weeks.

Alchemie have developed a two component polyurethane system which is water clear when cured.

Here are some results of CC400 when cast in glass bottles.
